whatever happened to the revolution?

whatever happened to the revolution

we all got stoned and it drifted away

whatever happened to the revolution

i think it died just yesterday

whatever happened to the revolution

we all got stoned and it drifted away

whatever happened to the revolution

i think it died just yesterday

i think it died just yesterday

well

i remember back in nineteen seventy

the army wanted you and the army wanted me

there was a war goin' on we were out in the streets

wearin' our badges and stampin' our feet

there's a hundred thousand people all on my side

we didn't care if we lived or died

hundred thousand people going to make it come

hundred thousand people had the man on the run

whatever happened to the revolution. everybody thought we could win with a vote

so the band went home without playin' a note

we forgot about that war but it still went on

i'm alright jack see you round so long

i'm alright jack see you round so long

and now today everyone's a bit older

we're gettin' richer but we're gettin' colder

we're lookin' for somethin' that just ain't there

and it don't mean nothin' to have long hair

so when you're ready to make a stand

open your mouth and raise your hand

when you're sick of your parties and sick of your sweets

get off your arses i'll see you out in the streets
